VIVO Electric Flip Down Swiveling Ceiling TV Mount for 32 to 70 inch Screens, Large Motorized Flat Ceiling VESA Mount, App and Voice Control, Black, MOUNT-E-FD70S

So I did tons of research before giving this mount a try and boy was it worth it. The biggest selling point was the ability to not only face the pool, but rotate 180 degrees to be viewed from other areas of the patio. I read a lot of reviews, so I figured I'd pay it back. This mount was used on an enclosed overhang on the patio with a 65" Roku tv (35 lbs). I'd rather pay $399 for a new tv every few years than pay for an "outdoor tv". Yes, this mount is made for 16" spacing in your joists. Not ideal since most are 24" apart, but not something you can't overcome. I used decking screws to secure a 36" x 16" piece of teakwood from Lowes to the joists and placed the mount on that. It's a bit expensive and I could have just used 2x4's, but my wife was not having it! The only thing that could have been better is adding an outlet to the mount for the tv to cut down on the wires being everywhere. It might have cleaned the wires up a bit, but I understand some slack is required for the mount to rotate. We had an electrician come and install an outlet near where I put the mount up and it's at least better than running a cord up there. Bottom line, we are very pleased with this mount. It does open and close slowly, but it's not a big deal. It is extremely sturdy and gives us more options than the one that just flips down. If you're thinking about it, go for it!

Works great! I lost the remote so I downloaded the app and it worked perfectly. Position 1 for viewing and position 2 for storing. I found the remote and couldnt figure out what was wrong. It just kept beeping. Theres a hole in the side of the mount so you can pair the new remote. To top if off, it works great with Alexa! Alexa, TV mount position 1! "OK i'm on it". Time to automate the whole house !

We purchased the VIVO Electric Flip Down Swiveling Ceiling TV Mount for our enclosed lanai, which has two glass walls and two stucco walls. Since our sofa faces the length of the room toward the glass, we had no choice but to mount the TV from the ceiling. The mount works great and performs exactly as advertised—it securely holds our 60" TV and operates smoothly. The only drawback is that it doesn’t swivel a full 360 degrees, which we would have preferred for greater flexibility.

I tried to give this a 5 Star review but it would only go to 4! Excellent product and easy setup. Would highly recommend this hanger.

We got this last April and it worked great. This June it pooped out on us. I contacted Vivo support by email, as it’s hard for me to know when I can schedule a phone call. I sent the first email Sunday evening. Monday morning I got a reply with a troubleshooting suggestion. Tried it when I got home. Didn’t work. Tuesday morning got a reply with another suggestion. Didn’t work. Wednesday morning got a reply with another suggestion. Didn’t woork. Thursday morning got a reply stating others replace it. Friday evening I received the replacement via UPS. I love the functionality of the mount, which I expected. What I didn’t expect was the responsiveness of the customer service dept. Any mounts I need in the future will be Vivi mounts.

This mount is just what I was looking for, we have this in patio and we needed the option of one that could swivel as our backyard gets lots of sun since it faces west. Purchased in February 25 and by late June started having issues with the motor, it got stuck. I contacted support and they sent me instructions on how to fix issue, but it didn't work. They are sending me a new mount due to the motor issues and I am extremely pleased with their customer service. The team is in the USA, which makes it even better.

Before you order, this mount REQUIRES your ceiling be on 16 6nch centers. Most walls are, but mine, as most, are on 24" centers. This required me to get into the attic, and reframe, which wasn't a horrible job. I just had to contend with a can light! Once framed in, putting the mount up is relatively easy, but putting the TV on the mount nearly requires a helicopter crane. I even went so far as to go out and purchase a $2600 TV that is relatively light, just to make this part easier. For 2 big, strong men, it was extremely challenging to lift even a 36 pound TV that high, and hook it in the key slot provided. Once the mount was in, and the TV was fully secured to the mount, all that was left was routing the wires, and, with the terrible directions provided, I have not YET managed that one. After all the challenges, however, it is one great mount that does everything claimed. I had promised my daughter that her wedding picture would be over thee fireplace, but I had nowhere else to put a TV. Vivo was the had solution to my problrm, but the ONLY ONE.

Works perfectly, mounted easily. Only recommendation is that VIVO should make a broad Star Kingboard type plate to distribute the mount pressure. I found the plates that mounted to the ceiling made indents so I stopped and fabricated a 1/2" thick, rectangular 'footing' plate and I routed a 1/4" edge on it. I also ordered 1/2" longer, black lag screws and washers. VIVO support noted they would pass on to R&D and were helpful in assessing my modfication. But again- it is simply amazing and was worth the price; we have an open floor plan and it's wonderful to rotate the TV from the dining area to the living room area. The mount is also pretty flush for the amount of weight and motors the mount has to accommodate. I think I may get one for my daughter and son-in-law; it's fantastic!

Its been about a year and a half and it still works perfect. Make sure you mount it somewhere solid. Its awkward and pretty heavy. The only thing I can fault it for so far is the fact that it super crazy slow to deploy. Really not a big deal overall. Thumbs up.

This is a great device! I am so glad I put my TV on the ceiling ! It saves a ton of space and makes it much better to watch it while relaxing in bed. The best part: TV will not get dusty as much... no finger prints... it will stay nicer for longer up there. Just MAKE SURE YOU screw the oarts into the wooden joists of your ceiling and that it is bolted nice and strong. It truly takes two people to handle the installation job. I am VERY PLEASED with this ! I highly recommend it!

it is a fantastic product i use it on my outdoor tvs and it is a game changer, it keeps the tv up and away and controlled via remote or phone easily

Have used this for 2 summers. No issues and works great. Love the swivel

The product is designed for 16" centred trusses. We have 600mm (near 24") so special support system had to be made. After that the installation was well described but not all that easy for a 78 year old. With help to install the TV,it was successful
